    This is the third time now that I receive a 'Bill' to pay with random price.
    Probably people trying to get money that way...

    Give them a call on there Toll Free Number and have a go at them :p!

    I am going to talk to the Business Standards about them and maybe take them to court over another issue!

    You get that stuff also? I'm not alone?
    My guess is they go on Paypal, get email ID out there, and ask for money hoping someone will actually click and send...
    Mine are from the UK because they ask money in pounds.
    First time, I don't recall, second time was 6.95 and third time was 41.50 pounds...

    I had similar problem last year. Someone sent me an email asked me to verify my profile, well, short story, I am so stupid because I click on the link in the email and dang! a week later my paypal account was used by someone else. I was lucky because I only have $1.95 USD in my paypal account.
